Please forgive me if this message isn't suitable for
this place. But I am in trouble.

I am goichi, member of tokyo perl mongers.
Mr.M-J Dominus, author or Text-Template etc, mail to our
leader that he visits Japan at the end of February, and
if it is possible, he want to attend tokyo.pm meeting.

Though I am not good at English, I am the master of
ceremonies of next meeting. So, I want to make contact
with him, but emails which I gave to him returned.

"please contact me, goichi@tokyo.pm.org."

    MJD is here as Dominus. I just dropped him a /msg, but he has not logged in in 4 days and I have no idea if he will get it.

    Possibly someone else has better contact information. (merlyn would be a bet.) Otherwise try email again and hope.

    At every CPAN mirror in the world, you'll find a file at authors/01mailrc.txt.gz, with mailing address for everyone who has contributed to the CPAN.

    Or even since you mention Text::Template, there's a section at the end of the manpage that says:

    Author Mark-Jason Dominus, Plover Systems Please send questions and other remarks about this software to "mjd-perl-template@pobox.com"

    Or a simple http://www.google.com search for mark-jason dominus turns up a nice bio of him on the first hit, and a link to his homepage on the third hit, with plenty of contact addresses on both.

    I'm not sure how you could not know MJD's addresses since it's listed even more places than mine. {grin}

    Ahh, rereading, I see you are seeing a temporary nameserver problem with plover. Just retry. At most, that's temporary.

      Mentor tilly, Mentor merlyn, Thank you for your advice.

      I try to send mail again,
      but please transmit my message if you see him.

      I am impatient because I have already taken out mail
      three times and time limit is near at hand.

      # The first mail is taken out on February 5.
      # I think this is not temporary problem.

      thanks.

        uga!!!
